The Good Old Friend

Well isn't this just.. awkward.

Immensely, intensely, severely.. awkward.

The awkwardness is similar to that feeling of catching up with a very good friend from high school that you completely ignored for 7 years - you would always see him but you would always pass up on the chance to talk again because everything's just too weird. He makes you cringe like crazy - heck, the mere thought of him makes you want to hurl.

But for some miraculous reason of some sort, here you are, staring in front of him, wanting to tell everything. Every bit of thing he missed for 7 years. The stupidities, the heartaches, and the accomplishments.

He has greatly changed; sporting the whole clean and professional look that most people prefer nowadays. In fact, he made it so much simpler for people to share to him as he is now more approachable and available. However, his lack of congeniality in the past was not the reason you turned your back from him. You impulsively placed him in a box full of things and people you have naturally outgrown from. Sadly, you were fully aware of your impulsiveness, but you made no effort to pull him out again.

Until today.
